A lawyer with an engineering degree would be the best person to interpret FCC regulations. The ARRL has engineers and lawyers and deals with the FCC so they are the best source of free advice in the U.S.

Is ROS Legal in US?` Asking a lawyer is the last person you would ask for technical advice. Try asking an engineer not a lawyer.

There's a few things we all agree on: 1) The legality of a mode depends on the technical details of that mode, not on what the author calls the mode. 2) The FCC's lawyers are the definite authority. K3UK has sent a letter to the FCC to ask for clarification. Once the FCC responds, we'll know for sure :) -- All rights reversed.
